Elephant takes a massive leak at the Texas GOP convention: ‘Oh, shoot!’

She put the P in GOP.

Convention-goers gasped Friday after an elephant relieved itself as it strolled through the assembly hall at a Texas Republican Party gathering.

Gov. Greg Abbott had just finished his keynote at the Texas GOP convention in Houston when the Paige, a 9-foot-tall and nearly 9,000 pound African elephant, made a surprise entrance.

Paige promptly urinated in the aisle between the press area and state delegates, according to several reporters who posted video of the incident on social media.

“Oh, shoot!” a stunned onlooker cried as the elephant widened her stance and emptied her tank while Brooks & Dunn’s “Only in America” blared in the background.

An adult African elephant can void up to 3 gallons of urine in a single session, and after what seemed like that amount of pee cascaded onto the convention floor, Paige nonchalantly went on her way, led by her handlers.

I guess being surrounded by RINOs scared the piss out of her...

The smell of RINO made him do it.

The only thing better than an elephant pissing in the GOP would be a donkey taking a dump on the DNC. So sick of both asshat parties.

I’m upset the handler didn’t let the girl finish her pee before making her continue the walk.

“An adult African elephant can void up to 3 gallons of urine in a single session”. Pachyderms are going to pachyderm.

“Oh shoot!”

Well, that definitely beats “Oh sh!t!”.

Your theory is spot on- our horses would wait until I was done cleaning out the barn and putting fresh straw down. Then they would come in and unload….

Reminds me of a live TV game show decades ago in which a chariot drawn by horses was driven on stage. Suddenly the cameras cut to an advertisement and when it came back the audience was howling with laughter. It seems one of the horses took a dump on the stage.
Hey when you gotta go you gotta go!
